Money Ready UK

Are you a parent or teacher looking for simple ways to help children build healthy money habits? 💰

Talking about money with children doesn't have to be complicated. It just has to start somewhere. Swipe through our bitesized lesson to help you introduce banking and saving to the young people in your life. 🏦

We’re inviting children to design their own neighbourhood using our budgeting template. 2 winners will each receive a £25 voucher. Deadline to enter is this Saturday 20th June. Open to all primary school aged children across the UK.

Do you talk to the children in your life about money? 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Whether you're a parent, grandparent, auntie, uncle or family friend, the adults around a child play a huge role in shaping how they think about money. It’s simpler than you think to start these conversations.

We don’t mean sitting a 4-year-old down and teaching them about compound interest, but children can absolutely get to grips with concepts like delayed gratification, needs and wants, risk and reward, and understanding how people actually earn money.

One of the best ways to do this is simply involving children in money conversations in everyday moments.

🛒 Budgeting together for the weekly supermarket shop.
🏖️ Setting up a savings jar for a family day out.
⚖️ Talking about why you choose one thing over another when money is tight.

35% of Brits surveyed in our Cost of Not Knowing research said they learned key financial skills too late. Early intervention makes a real difference — and it starts with the adults around them.

Since becoming Money Ready, we’ve hit milestones we’re so proud of, from running our very first BBC appeal to celebrating 20 years of our impact, and so many fun, exciting and invaluable moments in between.

Every moment has been a reminder of why we do what we do. Here’s a look back at some of the highlights. 📸

Thank you to everyone that makes this possible!

⭐️ Merged with RedSTART Educate and now support learners aged 4-40
⭐️ Celebrated 20 years of impact with an event at the House of Lords
⭐️ Saw 2 policy wins with recognition in the Financial Inclusion Strategy and the Curriculum and Assessment Review
⭐️ Launched our first flagship campaign, The Cost of Not Knowing
⭐️ Grew our programme offering, launching The Big Money Lesson and Money Ready Mondays amongst other initiatives
